Estimating process review for small GCs

Small GCs who bid and self-perform without a dedicated estimator, and want to know where scope is slipping through.

Small GCs without a dedicated estimator are often learning the job while bidding it, with no formal check on whether their process is consistently missing the same kind of scope. A read across real bids catches the pattern a solo operator can't see from inside it.

I feel one big thing that is missing is a good way to store cost data for what we've paid for various materials and labor on previous projects.

I didn't come from an estimating background. I've been learning as I go since starting my company.
